The Unveiling of a Hero's Legacy - A Tribute to Coventry Soldier Corporal Arthur Hutt V. C
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photo print, we are transported back to the historic moment when Coventry paid homage to one of its bravest sons. The granite memorial, standing tall and proud in the serene War Memorial Park, serves as a lasting tribute to Corporal Arthur Hutt V. C. , who valiantly served his country during the First World War. Gathered around this solemn monument are three distinguished gentlemen, each adorned with their Victoria Cross medals - the highest military honor. From left to right, we see Reverend Arthur Herbert Proctor, an embodiment of faith and courage from St. Peter's Church at Claybrooke Parva near Lutterworth. Beside him stands Mr. Henry Tandey and Mr. William Beesley, both hailing from Coventry itself. Presiding over this sacred ceremony is none other than Alderman J. Fennell, the esteemed Lord Mayor of Coventry at that time. With great reverence and respect for Corporal Hutt's sacrifice, he unveils the memorial amidst a backdrop of heartfelt emotions. Captured on April 17th in 1955 - a decade marked by post-war recovery and rebuilding - this photograph encapsulates not only an act of remembrance but also symbolizes resilience and unity within a community scarred by conflict. This evocative image offers us a glimpse into history; it immortal
